10790. I have one lesson of history, tutor period and then nothing for the rest of the day, since the school year has only just started they've said we can go home when we have free periods instead of doing 'directed study'

10791. Nice, although "directed study" does not sound fun. We didn't have that in our school, we just got to go home.

10972. Chloe's not in school though... She's in 6th form...

In England, they have a 2-year sixth form after high-school (which is actually called secondary school there) and in that you have 5 lessons of 4 subjects (I think) which doesn't equate to full days, so Chloe obviously has few lessons on a monday

10978. I think that's more a British idiom than an English one...
